The season for nostalgia, new memories, and visitors is fast approaching. Tis’ also the season for carpet cleaning! With guests coming from all over, it’s common to spend weeks on end preparing the home for their arrival. You want the home to be spotless, pristine, and inviting. While meticulously examining every inch of your home, did you notice spots on the carpet, or see thousands of dusty specks floating in the air? This may mean it’s time to contact a carpet cleaning specialist in your area, such as those at Professional Cleaning Specialists of Niagara. If you think about it, carpets hold a lot of residue: dead skin from our feet and bodies, hair (human and pet), dust, dirt, dropped morsels of food, even smells!  

Carpet Cleaning In Niagara Falls 

Causes Of A Dirty Carpet:

  • Shedding- As humans, we tend to do quite a bit of shedding over a lifetime. This includes our skin, hair, and nails, as well as those of our beloved pets. Carpet is the perfect trap for the above mentioned. 
  • Dirt and dust- fragments of the outside world come courageously drifting into our homes through clothes, windows, doors, shoes, and hair, to mention a few. 
  • Food-Everything needs some kind of sustenance to survive. When food drops on the floor, magically makes it into unreachable crevices (we’ve all taken a look around our crusty baseboards and cringed a little), invites pathogens, mice, insects, bugs, etc. into our homes. This not only causes dirty carpet, but an unhealthy environment for ourselves, and our families. 

Effects Of Dirty Carpet:

  • Norovirus – Norovirus is a disease spread by ingesting another organism’s feces or vomit. Unfortunately, there are more traces of these items in your carpet than you would think. Norovirus causes diarrhea and stomach flu among the more severe symptoms. If you have pets or children, or find yourself in public restrooms, you could easily track a nice little bit of this specimen into your home. 
  • Salmonella – Salmonella in carpets is created when bits of dropped food are left in the carpet for too long. They develop a breeding ground for salmonella, which is dangerous and sometimes deadly to children and the elderly. Symptoms of salmonella include, but are not limited to, diarrhea, abdominal cramps, and high fever.
  • Mold – Mold in a home, other than a fancy type of cheese that may be sitting in your fridge, is hardly ever a good thing. Mold sticks to materials and feeds on them. When mold is ingested into our lungs, it does the same thing it always does—feed.  This is not good for our respiratory systems and may cause a plethora of health complications.
